John at American Furniture Refinishing Cutchogue

Has anyone else had the misfortune of doing business with John at American Furniture Refinishing in Cutchogue.
I would be interested in hearing about it.
According to local police records, im just another in a long line to be burnt by this waaaaaaay less than reputable character.
Unfortunately, I made the mistake of trusting him up front.
Let my grossly negligent mistake be a lesson for others.
Traded him an antique piece for repairing and refinishing 1 piece and a simple repair on another.
The mistake was letting him take the piece in advance. 
Was promised to be finished in a week. After 2 months, made a police report and made a scene in the store just to get one of the pieces back without the work done on it, and after 12 weeks, have never seen the other piece again.
My advice:  Stay far far away from this guy and never let him touch your furniture.
